Aquatic fundamentals stand

I don't know if this is the right forum. Petco has the aquatic fundamentals stand for 105$. Anyone have any experience with this brand and quality? thanks

you get what you pay for...is it particle board or actual wood?

Also, no one should ever buy anything from petco. EVER.

It says it's made out of dense fiber board.
Dr. Fosters has the same stand as well. The reviews I have found aren't too bad.

If you know of an honest LFS, they can probably get you a more durable stand and for a decent price. But if you are just doing a small tank then i guess particle board can be trusted, i've just heard that it breaks down with a lot of moisture or leaks..

I'm looking for a stand that will a fit a 40 breeder tank with the dimensions 36"x18"
Any recommendations?
Honest fish store? lol. I wish!

Maybe just the AGA 36"x18 tank stand?
